Why Am I still Selling Avon Twenty-Five (25) Years Later(Why Am I Still in the Game)? Part 1

First of all, I started selling Avon because  my family needed extra money.  I could not go out and get a second outside-the-house job because we had three children(the fourth came four years later) and my husband leaves for work just as I was coming in from mine.  We did not want to leave three young children at home by themselves.

So, with my appointing Manager promising me that I would make money if I BELIEVE  in the business, the products and myself, I went out  running my Avon business as a business from the beginning.

The main fundamental reason of  my joining Avon was and still is  to make money or earn an extra income.  I also  wanted my family to have a financial stability so that we could help our family abroad when needed.  I did not want to struggle with funds whenever I saw something our parents would love in the store.  I also wanted us to be able to send something home when anyone was visiting Nigeria and could visit our parents.

So, as those reasons or my Why of starting to sell Avon remain in place and I was able to fulfill them, I could not leave the business.  Life became much more easier for us.  We were able to pay for extra things conveniently.

I also started earning incentives from Avon.  For instance, I earned enough points to purchase a big 32" TV with a built-in cabinet and stereo from Avon Representative Rewards Program.  That was the jewel of our living room then. Every visitor would ask where we got it from and their comments when they learnt the source would bring joy to my heart.  I started enjoying the business more, and then selling more.  The incentives kept piling up.  My Mrs. Albee trophies(the statuette of the first Avon Representatives given when we reach first level of Sales Title)became the decorations for our home.

When our children reached the age to participate in activities like sports, we were able to pay for those easily including travelling all over the Country for Championships

The best part of why I stayed in this business came in 2002.  We needed to buy a single family home when our family and relatives living with us grew.  When we met with our Builder's Financial Advisor, she looked at both my husband's and my paycheck and asked if we had any other income to help booster our approval and interest rate. My husband whispered into my ears to show the lady my Avon earnings.  When she saw the records, her comment was the catalyst to my still being called an Avon Representative till today. She said "Do you mean you could make this much selling Avon and for you, on a part-time basis? She continues:  Do you know that this is what some people make at their full-time job?"  This meant that I  am making a full-time money, doing a part-time job,
Yes, I answered and she stamped our paper for the Construction Loan: APPROVED!!.

These are some of the  reasons why I am still selling Avon. I love the business, I love our products, I love my Team and moreover  I love beauty, so I make it my business.
